The decomposition of sulfuryl chloride (SO2Cl2) is a first-order process. The rate constant for the decomposition at 660 K is 4.5 10-2 s-1. (a) If we begin with an initial SO2Cl2 pressure of 345 torr, what is the pressure of this substance after 63 s? torr (b) At what time will the pressure of SO2Cl2 decline to one tenth its initial value? s By what factor will the pressure of sulfuryl chloride decrease after 8 half lives? Note: The answer wants this value: (345 torr)/value = final pressure after decay

answer: option (b) is the correct answer.

explanation:

a covalent bond is formed by sharing of electrons. whereas polarity arises due to difference in electronegativity of two atoms.

therefore, more is the electronegativity of an atom which combines with the titanium, more readily it will induce a partial positive and negative charge.

thus, out of the given options fluorine is most electronegative and has an incomplete octet. therefore, it will readily combine with titanium to share the electrons and complete its octet.  

just did the assignment and the answer was #1 +2 n

im doing test rn im going with 2 but ill give answer if itss wrong,   : )
